Book Synopsis Simplified Precision Club Bridge Bidding System by : Ken Casey
Download or read book Simplified Precision Club Bridge Bidding System written by Ken Casey and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book incorporates the 2/1 Game Force bidding system for opening majors and the Casey Simplified Precision Club system for opening minors. This book simplifies the traditional Precision Club system by eliminating many of its unnecessary complications. You will only need to add one new convention, the opening 1 bid, to your Standard American system. This system enables the responder to know the opener’s point count within a 2p range after the opener’s rebid. In addition, the Casey Overcall will improve your part scores by hampering the opponents from finding their spade fit. The book will also help you reach a new level by improving your slam bidding. The advantage of using the Casey Bidding System is that you will open the hand 12.6% more often than with Standard American. Ken has published more than 15 bridge books. There are 5 core books as follows: Tournament Bridge for Beginning Players (4th ed. 2020), Tournament Bridge for Intermediate Players (5th ed. 2021), Tournament Bridge for Advanced Players (4th ed. 2021), Tournament Bridge for Notrump Contracts (4th ed. 2020) and Tournament Bridge Tips on Defense (4th ed. 2020). In addition, Ken has published two books on bidding, The Casey Simplified Precision Club Bridge Bidding System (2nd ed. 2021) and the Casey 2/1 Bridge Bidding System (5th ed. 2022). Ken served as a Russian interpreter during the Vietnam War and then spent over 30 years practicing as a tax attorney. Ken also has an MBA in accounting and a CPA.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers basic and advanced features of the Two-Over-One (2/1) Game Force bidding system which include Bergen and Combined Bergen Raises, inverted minor suit raises with criss-cross and flip-flop, cue bidding, modified scroll bids, and many more methods not used in Standard American or Precision. This is not a book on conventions, it is a book about bridge which incorporates conventions which allow the partnership to reach game or slam. In this regard, I have incorporated modern methods for hand evaluation developed by Marty Bergen. New bidding conventions like SARS (Shape Asking Relays after Stayman), Quest transfers and an overview of "Bridge Rules and Laws" which will improve your approach to the bidding structure you may use today.

Book Synopsis Precision Simplified --- Second Edition by : Neil H. Timm Ph. D.
Download or read book Precision Simplified --- Second Edition written by Neil H. Timm Ph. D. and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05-05 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2/1 Game Force System is an improvement over the Standard American System that has been played by bridge players for years. The clear advantage of 2/1 is that it allows a partnership to know that game is possible with only a single bid by the responder. However, a significant disadvantage is that the opener may have between 12 and 21 high card points (HCP) when opening one of a suit, obviously a very wide range. To remedy this situation, one may employ the strong club system in contract or duplicate bridge know simply as Precision.
Download or read book Fantunes Revealed written by Bill Jacobs and published by . This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Start playing a winning system. Not since the introduction of Precision has a new bidding system created such an immediate impact as Fantunes, the unique methods of Fulvio Fantoni and Claudio Nunes, the world's number one ranked pair. The Italians have several world championship wins to their name, and their system has played a major role in that success. This book delves into the system, explaining how it works and just as importantly, why it works. Two words best describe Fantunes: natural and fun. It is the definitive text for those who would like to try an innovative and proven new bidding system. Bill Jacobs has won many Australian national championships, the most recent three playing Fantunes, and has twice represented his country at Open level. He regularly provides astute vugraph commentary on Bridge Base Online. For the last ten years, he has been editor of the monthly bulletin of the Victorian Bridge Association.
Book Synopsis Santa Fe Precision by : Dennis Dawson
Download or read book Santa Fe Precision written by Dennis Dawson and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-21 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book on Precision is quite different. It is a very simplified version, based on the system played by Rodwell and Meckstroth so successfully, but aimed at club players. Dennis Dawson learned Meckwell Lite fifteen years ago when playing on teams with Rodwell and Meckstroth. He then used it while representing the US in the Senior World Team Championship, in which he won a bronze medal. Dawson's students in Santa Fe wanted to learn the system, so he made some changes to make it easier for them to remember. That version is the basis of this book, which includes many examples from thirteen years of teaching the system. "Precision is more effective and more fun than 2/1! You bid more and pass less, and bidding is more fun." Fred Gitelman, founder of BBO
Book Synopsis Precision Simplified by : Neil H. Timm
Download or read book Precision Simplified written by Neil H. Timm and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My goal in writing this book is to provide a careful organization of topics so that one may easily convert from any standard two club opening system and in particular the 2/1 Game Force bids to Precision. In the process, one may keep most of their natural bidding sequences and the conventions they currently use with minor modifications. I have tried to eliminate the fear of the memory features used by many variations of Precision by presenting a series of bids that are geared toward simplicity and allow the reader to integrate the Precision system into their more familiar natural bidding system using the 2/1 Game Force bidding structure which includes Combined Bergen Raises, inverted minor suit raises with criss-cross, cue bidding, modified scroll bids, and many more familiar methods.
Book Synopsis An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling by : Howard M. Taylor
Download or read book An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling written by Howard M. Taylor and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Stochastic Modeling provides information pertinent to the standard concepts and methods of stochastic modeling. This book presents the rich diversity of applications of stochastic processes in the sciences. Organized into nine chapters, this book begins with an overview of diverse types of stochastic models, which predicts a set of possible outcomes weighed by their likelihoods or probabilities. This text then provides exercises in the applications of simple stochastic analysis to appropriate problems. Other chapters consider the study of general functions of independent, identically distributed, nonnegative random variables representing the successive intervals between renewals. This book discusses as well the numerous examples of Markov branching processes that arise naturally in various scientific disciplines. The final chapter deals with queueing models, which aid the design process by predicting system performance. This book is a valuable resource for students of engineering and management science. Engineers will also find this book useful.
Download or read book Games written by C. Thi Nguyen and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Games are a unique art form. They do not just tell stories, nor are they simply conceptual art. They are the art form that works in the medium of agency. Game designers tell us who to be in games and what to care about; they designate the player's in-game abilities and motivations. In other words, designers create alternate agencies, and players submerge themselves in those agencies. Games let us explore alternate forms of agency. The fact that we play games demonstrates something remarkable about the nature of our own agency: we are capable of incredible fluidity with our own motivations and rationality. This volume presents a new theory of games which insists on games' unique value in human life. C. Thi Nguyen argues that games are an integral part of how we become mature, free people. Bridging aesthetics and practical reasoning, he gives an account of the special motivational structure involved in playing games. We can pursue goals, not for their own value, but for the sake of the struggle. Playing games involves a motivational inversion from normal life, and the fact that we can engage in this motivational inversion lets us use games to experience forms of agency we might never have developed on our own. Games, then, are a special medium for communication. They are the technology that allows us to write down and transmit forms of agency. Thus, the body of games forms a "library of agency" which we can use to help develop our freedom and autonomy. Nguyen also presents a new theory of the aesthetics of games. Games sculpt our practical activities, allowing us to experience the beauty of our own actions and reasoning. They are unlike traditional artworks in that they are designed to sculpt activities - and to promote their players' aesthetic appreciation of their own activity.
Book Synopsis Modified Italian Canapé System by : Kenneth Rexford
Download or read book Modified Italian Canapé System written by Kenneth Rexford and published by . This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Ken Rexford introduces the strong club relay system with canap bidding that he played successfully for years. His approach is novel, but it is also one that is easy to learn and play. Most importantly, the entire system fits within the ACBL General Convention Chart. As with his first book, Cuebidding At Bridge, Ken Rexford spends much time explaining the theory and thinking behind canap sequences, so that the reader will understand the approach rather than simply memorizing a list of conventions. The author also includes a basic scheme for converting your system from Precision to Canap, or even from Standard all the way to Canap, all in easy steps. For those who are intrigued but intimidated by Canap, this extra material should help to ease the transition.

Book Synopsis The Image of the City by : Kevin Lynch
Download or read book The Image of the City written by Kevin Lynch and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1964-06-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic work on the evaluation of city form. What does the city's form actually mean to the people who live there? What can the city planner do to make the city's image more vivid and memorable to the city dweller? To answer these questions, Mr. Lynch, supported by studies of Los Angeles, Boston, and Jersey City, formulates a new criterion—imageability—and shows its potential value as a guide for the building and rebuilding of cities. The wide scope of this study leads to an original and vital method for the evaluation of city form. The architect, the planner, and certainly the city dweller will all want to read this book.
Book Synopsis Good, Better, Best by : Jan Eric Larsson
Download or read book Good, Better, Best written by Jan Eric Larsson and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridge players constantly argue about the 'best' bidding systems and conventions. Strong Club or Natural? With or without relays? Standard or 2/1? Weak or strong notrump? Was the Blue Club system really better than the natural systems in the 1950s and 1960s? Is two-way Stayman as good as Stayman and transfers? Disciplined or undisciplined weak twos -- which work better? And many, many more... Well, now we have the answer to those questions, provided by exhaustive analysis and the results of computer simulations. And not only which is better, but also by how much, typically tested in thousands of 24-board IMP matches. Playing the same deals via the same AI software eliminates the variable of player skill, and bidding methods are judged solely on their own merits. It is as objective a test as modern technology can provide. And the results may not be what you would expect.
